Psalm 8

CEB

NKJV

1 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name throughout the earth! You made your glory higher than heaven!
1 To the Chief Musician. On the instrument of Gath. A Psalm of David. O Lord, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth, Who have set Your glory above the heavens!
2 From the mouths of nursing babies you have laid a strong foundation because of your foes, in order to stop vengeful enemies.
2 Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have ordained strength, Because of Your enemies, That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I look up at your skies, at what your fingers made— the moon and the stars that you set firmly in place—
3 When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,
4 what are human beings that you think about them; what are human beings that you pay attention to them?
4 What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?
5 You've made them only slightly less than divine, crowning them with glory and grandeur.
5 For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You've let them rule over your handiwork, putting everything under their feet—
6 You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet,
7 all sheep and all cattle, the wild animals too,
7 All sheep and oxen-- Even the beasts of the field,
8 the birds in the sky, the fish of the ocean, everything that travels the pathways of the sea.
8 The birds of the air, And the fish of the sea That pass through the paths of the seas.
9 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name throughout the earth!
9 O Lord, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth!
